Protecting Children
A child may continue using a booster
seat until the tops of the ears are
even with the top of the seat-back. A
child of this height should be tall
enough to use the lap/shoulder belt
without a booster.
When Can a Larger Child Ride in this
Car
Children var y widely. And while age
may be one indicator of when a child
can safely ride in this car, there are
other important factors you should
consider.
Physical Size
Physically, a child must be large
enough for the lap/shoulder belt to
properly fit over the hips, chest, and
shoulder (see pages 15 and 29). If
the seat belt does not fit properly,
the child should use a booster seat.
Maturity
To safely ride in this car, a child
must be able to follow the rules,
including sitting properly and
wearing the seat belt properly
throughout a ride.
